Bills/Sabres Podbag & Reaction To Yester...

BLUE WIRE
About this episode

Happy Independence Day, everyone! On this holiday episode of Talking Buffalo, it's another edition of The Podbag featuring Buffalo Bills and Sabres submissions in addition to reaction to yesterday's memorable episode.

On yesterday's Talking Buffalo Patrick welcomed Chris "Bulldog" Parker and his son, Owen for a conversation on many topics, including Owen's youth hockey career and sports parenting. It was a fascination that turned emotional a few times, drawing incredibly positive reactions from listeners and in fact, became the most downloaded episode of Talking Buffalo in the first 24 hours of any episode ever. Patrick spends some time at the top reacting to some of the things the three of them touched on and offers some further insight of his own, again with the purpose of hopefully bringing some value to anyone out there who's a parent that has a children playing sports. There's a lot to learn from, both the good and from some of the mistakes that get made.

The second half of the show is about the Podbag, where listeners submit their questions, comments and takes for Patrick to read off on the air and react to. Today's batch includes the never ending frustration of Sabres fans, someone who thinks Kevyn Adams is literally the  worst GM in franchise history, Josh Allen's burning desire that'll last until he wins a Super Bowl and if the Bills are kind of "stuck" with DaQuan Jones for another season.  That, plus Matt Warren is really tall and much more.  Enjoy the Holiday weekend!

The Talking Buffalo online merch store is now live! You can purchase t shirts, hoodies, zip ups, crewnecks and polos in a couple of different styles and colors. Visit our online page for pricing and options and while there, check out Buf on Weck for tons of cool gear!

Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time. Also big thanks to Imperial Pizza and their two locations (1035 Abbott Road and 1655 Main Street), home of not only great pizza and tons of other delicious eats but also the best everyday lunch special in town.

Special thanks to local Buffalo band, Orange Zestfor allowing us to use their awesome single, “Old Friends” as the new official intro music for Talking Buffalo.
